Elton to sing at Rush's Wedding (not snark...)

Unlikely bedfellows
By: CNN Associate Producer Rebecca Stewart

Washington (CNN) - Elton John is expressing a newfound fondness for someone most would see as a foe, Rush Limbaugh, the outspokenly anti-gay marriage radio personality. In the new issue of Rolling Stone, to be released Friday, John discusses the thaw between the two, who many would expect to have a lot to disagree over.

John explained his reaction when asked by Limbaugh to perform at his wedding, "I could not believe when I was asked to play. I thought it was a joke."

Limbaugh wed Kathryn Rogers in Florida on June 5, 2010 in a lavish Hawaiian-themed ceremony. Photos of the fete are still available on Limbaugh's official Facebook page. It is his fourth marriage.

He further discussed his motivation to continue an alliance with Limbaugh, hoping that the camaraderie between the two will eventually morph into support for gay rights.

5. I heard Sir Elton rewrote "Candle in the Wind" for yet another time
for the Limbaugh wedding. The new words were "Like a fatass in the wind" or some such BS.

9. How many marriages before your are a Family Values Model (R)?
I guess it has to be over three...before you get warmed up and can really 'claim' to be a good Repubbie.
